The show sailed along this week, although some of it was less appealing than previously. Some thoughts on the storylines:

Roommates for life.
This storyline with Maya becoming engaged to Carter is a fail. Not only has he consistently come across as pushy and creepy, but their 'staged' feeling interactions haven't resonated with many viewers. These characters hadn't even been dating or sleeping together - nothing at all has happened between them to warrant a proposal of marriage. Besides, Carter knows she's in love with Rick. Beyond dumb.

Notice anything different?
Pam took off her pearls! Love these little nuggets of comedy lobbed into the drama. Pam's always a kick.

Ranting about Katie.
After what Bill and Brooke did to Katie you'd think they'd be willing to take whatever they have coming to them, but Bill continues to rant and rave. He's so indignant about Katie trying to piss him off. So funny how skewed Bill sees things.

Cut all ties.
Wow, that was a new low for Liam; asking Hope to cut all business ties with Wyatt. It was also a low for Hope to go to Eric and actually try to back out of a business deal because her fiance was jealous. Of course randy ol' Eric wanted to keep Quinn around so he nixed the idea. For his part, Wyatt offered to end the deal when he found out what Hope did. Egad. So many people who can't separate their personal lives from business.

The marriage is ending.
Not buying Steffy signing annulment papers at all! As for Liam yammering at Bill to just accept it - Bill has been too concerned with his own affairs, he hasn't mentioned Steffy and Liam's marriage in eons. Bunk.

Family business.
Quinn was really getting around this week, what with meetings, and visits to Brooke and Eric. It's interesting that she mentioned being a realist, because she definitely seems to have purpose in everything she does. So, we know she made Stephanie's portrait fall down (hilarious!) by kissing Eric, but does she have a genuine interest in him, or is she just using him to ensure that the all-important contract (and Wyatt's tie to Hope) remains intact?

Could not agree more about Maya and Carter. Just because she broke up with Rick does not mean she needs to MARRY a man she's never even been out to dinner with. I doubt they even know when each other's birthdays are. Jeez!

Wish there was some Donna with the Pam, those two are funny together.

Agree about Hope and Liam -- whining like a couple of teenagers. Please. Cancel a major business deal because Liam is threatened? How about when Steffy walked around in her undies in front of him when he was engaged to Hope? Hope objected, but Liam told him it was "just business."

Hypocrisy must run in the Spencer genes because Bill is even worse about Katie. She has given him no reason to suspect her of anything, she is doing nothing wrong (they are divorced) and yet he's having her followed? What does he think he's going to find her doing?

My favourite moments of the weeks were Katie's scenes with the completely clueless Brooke who honestly believed that things would just go back to normal and Katie would get behind the whole Bill-Brooke thing and actually SUPPORT them as a couple! Is she really that dense?

Quinn is as enamored with Eric's money and power as her son is with Bill's. So much for being honest, hard-working other-side-of-the-tracks folks. They are as starry-eyed as they come.

I think Quinn is definitely using Eric right now but she could easily come to genuinely care about him.

Omg Liam and Hope- Can we talk about the fact that Liam showed his true colors after he announced Steffy signed the papers and he said disappointingly something about like his marriage never existed or something. I mean c'mon! If he that's sad about it then why is this loser getting married again to someone else?

Is Steffie and Taylor off the show? About Myah and Carter. No chemistry between them at all. He is pitiful. Myah and Rick should be together.

I like the Hope, Liam and Wyatt triangle. I quite like Steffy's absence a lot. I like Maya and Carter together. I miss Ridge. If he does return, I would like to see him with Taylor. I don't mind Brooke with Bill. I miss seeing Thorn. Maybe he could hook up with Katie.

Liam..Liam..Liam. Confession is good for the soul but doesn't take away the "fact" that life with Hope is the "result" only because supposedly martyr Steffy telling Liam to go back to Hope. If I recall, Liam's response was "Why? Because she can have children. I love you, I DON'T WANT TO LOSE YOU". How would Hope feel if she knew Liam told Steffy that? Like.. "Thank you Liam for allowing me to be your SECOND CHOICE to be your wife". Now his song is "I love Steffy. She WAS a big part of my life". Liam needs to get real. Doesn't want to lose his "back-up" partner for life. Hope needs to grab Wyatt while he's still interested.
